ABSTRACT
Contemporary dual-process models of memory posit two processes—recollection and familiarity—that underlie both recall and recognition (e.g., Atkinson & Juola, 1974; Jacoby, 1991; Mandler, 1980; see Diana, Reder, Arndt, & Park, 2006; Malmberg, 2008; and Yonelinas, 2002, for reviews). Particular dual-process models differ in various ways (e.g., whether they explicitly elaborate ways to deal with false memory, whether they incorporate assumptions about the architecture of memory representations, whether recollection and familiarity are viewed as independent processes, or whether recollection is treated as a discrete or a continuous variable). Nevertheless, they have much in common.
